The Father of Forty-one Children.

g | read in the Times few DAYS ago"
said member of the Reading (Pa.) bar,
on visit to this city, Gan account of
man in Western Pennsylvania who died
the father of thirty-three children, at the
age of 90 years. When John Hefiner, of
Reading, was accidentally killed by the
cars in that city, in 1885, at the age of SO
years, he was the father of forty Zone chill
dren, and a step-child also called him
father. Heffner was one OF Readings
characters, and was in the full vigor Of
health when he was killed 1t is doubtful
if his record in the paternal line was ever
equaled. Heiiner was Il dwarled lunch
back. He was born in Berlin IN 1876 and
came to this country in 1913, settling in
Reading. Until his death he made a liv-
ing by collecting and selling rags and
paper. His remarkable family history is
part Of the records of the Rerks county
Courts, it having been ELECTED short time
before his death while he was a witness in
4 lawsuit He was married first in 1910.
In eight years his wife bore him seventeen
children. The first and second years Of
their marriage she gave birth to twins.
For four successive years afterward she
bore triplets. In the seventh year she
gave birth to one child, and died soon
afterward. Of the seventeen children
she left, consequently, the eldest
was only Z years of age Hefiner engaged
Young woman TO look after his large
brood of babies, and three months later she
became the second Mrs Heffner She pre-
sented her husband with two children the
first two years. Five years later she had
added ten more To the fomiIy-t,yo at every
birth. Then for three years she added but
one year. She died before another year
came round. OF the thirty-two children
that John Hefiher had been presented with
twelve had died The twenty that were
left, however, did not appear to he any
obstacle to young widow with one child
consenting to become the third wife of the
jolly little humpbaci-for he was known
as one of the happiest and most genial men
in Reading, though it kept him toiling
like slave to keep his score of mouths in
bread. The third Mrs. Hefiner became
the mother of nine children to her hus-
band in ten years, and the contentment
and happiness of the company was pro-
verbal. One day in the fall of 1885 the
father of the forty children was crossing
the Reading track and was run down By a
locomotive and killed. But for this sad
ending of his life it is impossible to esti-
mate what the size of this little peddlers
family would eventually have been. His
widow and large number Of his children
Il believe there are twenty-eight of the
forty-two still living-live in Reading.
They are all. thrifty and respectable peo-
ple"-New York Times.

THE GREAT NAPOLEON.
His Behavior, Sickness and Death at st.
Helena-England's Generosity.

On the oath of July, 1915, seventy-two
years ago, says writer in the st. Louis
Globe-DemocrGt, the British man-of-war
Bellerophon, with the Emperor Napoleon
on board, anchored at Torbay, on the south
ern coast of England, and Napoleon was a
prisoner of war. As early as at Wagram
Napoleon showed that his intellect had
passed its prime. From that time on he
was not himself His Waterloo campaign
was feeble. His conduct after Waterloo
was more feeble. He was irresolute He
abdicated prematurely. After his abdica-
ton, and while vet at Paris, he displayed
timidity From Paris he proceeded to
Rochefort, on the western coast of France,
with about $4,000 in gold, with the in
tention to go to America. At that date he
would have been one of the rich men in
this country. He reached Rochefort on
July Sd Not only precious hours but
precious days slipped by. At last escape,
which at first might have been easy, be-
came impossible.
Probably it was well. In this country
ne might have wrought mischief. On

FASHION NOTES.

Specially attractive dresses of yelling
and similar light wool fabrics are being
made
A hat that is like breath of country
air is formed of battledore braiding, lined
with red and trimmed with daisies, cow
slips, dandelions and clover leaves and
blossoms in white, pink and purple.
A dress of white lace, with narrow
tlounces, is exceedingly pretty. The
draped bodice is formed Of Pompadour
crepe, and the iabots, waisteoat and
sleeves represent quantities of the same
light fabric.
A tea-gown worthy of note has the
bodice and train of Pompadour silk, with
palest chine flowers on cream ground,
opening over an underskirt of blended
blush pink and palest sky blue, softened
by.cream lace.
Long wraps in ulster or pelisse fashion
are In high favor, and are very generally
worn on excursions and outings. The
favorite material is wool suiting on mod
erately heavy English cloth The pelisse
sleeve is preferred, and the collar may be
very high and close or very wide and roll
ing.
Killarney cloaks are the newest things
in tourists wraps. They are made of sew
eral straight breadths of mohair, surah,
Irish poplin or camePs-hair, SHRED to a
wide velvet collar The wrap falls I'M
draped from throat to skirt-hem, and is
easy, protective, but not particularly ele-
giant in effect.
Early autumn wraps differ but slightly
from those worn during the summer.
One charming novelty is made from a
single piece of material nearly three
yards in length. The middle of the scarf
passes around the shoulders, crosses in
front, where the superfuous iullness is
taken up by darts and seams. The ends
pass round the waist.
A very pretty dress is of fine white
gypsy cloth and soft thick twilled silk.
The body, sleeves and draperies are of the
wool goods; the vest, collar, cuffs and
lower skirt Of the silk The skirt has
very wide panel Of the silk laid in deep
plaits, each plat furnished with a narrow
edging of pearl bead trimming. The vest,
collar and cuffs are similarly trimmed.

MISCELLANEOUS.
Mexican War Veteran.

The wonderful efficacy of Swift's Specific as a
remedy and cure for rheumatism and all blood
disease has never had a more conspicuous
illustration than this case affords. The candid
unsolicited and emphatic testimony given by
the venerable gentleman must be accepted as
and conclusive. The writer is q
prominent citizen of Mississippi. The gentle
man to whom Nj. Martin refers, and to whom
he is indebted for the advice to which be owes
his anal relief from years of suffering, is Mr..
King, for many years the popular night clerk OF
the Lawrence House, at Jackson.

attacked, to october l, 1886, when was cured.
During these eleven years Of intense suffering
tried innumerable prescriptions from various
physicians, and tried every thing suggested by
friends, but if ever received the least benefit
from any medicine taken internally or exter-
nally, am not aware Oft. Finally about the first
of September, made arrangements to go to the
Hot Springs of Arkansas, having despaired of
every other remedy, when j accidentally met
an old acquaintance. Mr.. King, now of the
Lawrence House, of this city. he had once
been great sufferer from rheumatism, and, as
suppose, had been cured by visit to Hot
Springs. But when met him, he told me his
visit to the Hot Springs was in yain-he found
no relief. On his return from Ho5 Springs he
heard, for the first time, of the 5. 5. 9 as rem
edy for rheumatism. He tried it and six bottles
made a complete cure. Several years have
passed since, but he has had no return of the
disease.
l Immediately returned 70 try it. In Septem-
Der l took four bottles and by the first of &C.
tober was well-as for rs the rheumatism was
concerned. All pain had disappeared, and

WHEN L AM DEAD.


When am dead do not come to my grave
Do not trouble me in my sweet sleep.
And in thy childishly weak grief
Do not shed unnecessary tears.
The wind will sweep the dust from my tomb;
The rain will weep over it.
Why, then. shouldst thou tread on my poor
ashes!
Go by
Have no concern as to whether thou art guilty
or not
And, like me, forget all
Thou art free-wed whom thou wilt.
1 am tormented to death,
And now am lying deep under the ground.
Ny heart sleeps calmly in my breast:
For oYertaxed strength rest is delicious
Go BY
-. Z. LithdchoG.
ORIGINAL.
Come not, when am dead
To drop thy foolish tears upon my grave
To trample round my fallen head
And Yex the unhappy dust thou wouldst not
save
There let the wind sweep and the plover cry,
But thou, go by
Child, if It were thy error or thy crime,
care not, being ali unblest
Wed whom thou wilt but l am sick of time,
And desire 10 rest
Pass on weak heart, and leave me where lie.
